Richard, thanks for working on this. Unfortunately, logcheck is still not
usable on SuSE :(
The lockfile stuff gets pulled OK, but some issues still remain:
a) if logcheck is run as root, it complains that it should be run as regular
user
b) if it is run as regular user, it can't set up locks because of missing
seu(g)id bit on dotlockfile (I know, you can't do much with this)
c) if I set suid bit on dotlockfile manually and run logcheck as regular user,
it can't access /var/lib/logcheck (insufficient permissions)
d) if I remove 'check-if-run-as-root' from /usr/sbin/logcheck and try to run it
as root, it complains that run-parts command is not found.
IMO it can't be solved without modifying logcheck not to rely so heavily on
debian specific stuff
(see
http://www.mail-archive.com/logcheck-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org/msg00263....)
I could possibly work on it when I have more time (not now though).
